Browsers will remove white space by default. For force multiple spaces us   but be warned that browsers use proportional fonts and so 5 spaces will not be equal width with 5 characters.

Subject: [WEB400] How do I preserve leading blanks in fields - Using CGIDEV2.
I am new to CGIDEV2 and have gotten a few programs up and running quickly.
Kudo's to Giovanni and company.
However, I have a new problem. The 1 field has alpha numeric data that is right justified example __name. When the HTML gets the value, it strips all the leading blanks displaying name__.
How do I preserver the leading blanks?
I tried %20/%field_name%/ and /%%20field_name%/ which produced the wrong results.
TIA
